  • Keeping children safe when using the internet and making them aware of cyber bullying
  • Ensuring our school is secure
  • Being an anti-bullying school
  • Having a positive approach to behavior management
  • Being proactive against attempts to inflict extreme views onto children
  • Zero tolerance to Racist behavior
  • Protecting children from harm
  • Meeting the needs of children with medical conditions
  • Providing First Aid
